There's no better way to learn how to fix computers than to, well, fix a computer, Lol. If you had taken your computer to a shop for repair they would have charged you a lot and probably would have lied to you in order to coerce you into buying things you don't need. It really is satisfying to be able to fix your own stuff. You should think about eventually building your own system. As long as you take the time to do proper research it's really not that hard.

Give us an update when you get the new hard drive. Keep in mind, my recommendation of that drive was after a quick search on Newegg. It's a fine drive, I like Western Digital a lot, and I thought the price was fair. But you don't Have to get that one. Just make sure that you get ATA 100 or ATA 133, not Serial ATA (SATA.) Let me know if you have any questions.
